Justice Rebecca Bradley has some ground to make up in Waukesha, Washington and Ozaukee counties if she's going to pull the same percent of the vote there that Justice David Prosser did in 2011 as he won re-election by 7,004 votes.

The three -- dubbed the WOW counties -- are key for Republicans and conservatives in statewide races.

In 2011, Prosser pulled 71.5 percent of the vote in Ozaukee County against JoAnne Kloppenburg, who is again seeking a seat on the court. With 82 percent of precincts reporting there, Bradley had 64.3 percent of the vote.

In 2011, Prosser won 76.5 percent of the vote in Washington County. With more than 83 percent of precincts reporting, Bradley was at 72.1 percent.

In 2011, Prosser took 73.8 percent of the vote in Waukesha County. With 88 percent of the vote in, Bradley was at 68.4 percent.
